My favorite quote from Charley: "I'm not a black guy singing country music, I'm an American singing American music."

Thanks again to each of you who took time to respond and to those who read the comments. I hope these insights will make us all a little bit better steel players.

Thanks to all of you for taking time to input. Much to cogitate on here.

I searched for this topic but found nothing, so I'll broach it here. How do you determine whether to play a triad or just two notes? Is is just a matter of personal style or taste, or is there a &qu ...

I'm sorry for the loss of your friend, Bill, but I'm glad you posted this. Somehow I had missed this incredible player on YouTube. His influence on your playing is very evident.

I remember the tab being in Mel Bay's Anthology of Pedal Steel Guitar E9 Chromatic Tuning as "Londonderry Air." Looks like the book is available from Amazon.

And an indirect "howdy" to my friend, the inimitable Bill Sutton, who has generously helped me over the years.
